Baked Banana Oatmeal

Preheat oven to 180ºC (about 355ºF).

Mash the banana in a bowl.

Add the remaining ingredients and stir until combined. It will just look like a bowl of chunky oatmeal.

Grease a ramekin (mine is 10 cm in diameter) well; I use coconut oil as it adds a sweet flavour to the outside of the oatmeal. Place the mix into the ramekin and pat down with a spoon so the mixture forms perfectly around the ramekin.

Bake in the oven for approximately 20 minutes. You can eat it straight from the ramekin, but if you’re serving this at brunch, which is definitely something you should consider given it so easy yet so delicious, flip the baked oatmeal onto a plate. Drizzle with any toppings you choose. I often use honey, or peanut butter, or LSA, or all of them.

In my opinion, the best way to spice this up to serve for brunch would be to add chocolate chips prior to baking, sprinkle each oatmeal mix with coconut when in the ramekin, then serve sprinkled with LSA, more honey or maple syrup and peanut butter.

Note: LSA is a ground blend of linseeds, sunflower seeds, and almonds. You can find it in a health store or even some supermarkets.
